As wonderful as these pictures are, AJK is severely under developed. The decent standard of living people enjoy is mostly thanks to expat money.

Most areas don't have gas connection, many lack telecom lines, electricity comes and goes, proper guttering and waste management is completely missing, there are water shortages, the roads are full of potholes, the health system is next to non existent (people travel to Islamabad for proper treatment of serious illness). I put all the blame squarely at the feet of the AJK politicians.
